Depends on how much you care about online tbh. You should also keep in mind that it will become paid for starting later this year so maybe squeeze some more life out of the free service than go off the grid come September (?)

I'll laugh if Nintendo unbans everyone when they release the paid for online service, and then rebans them once they buy the online service, so people waste 20 dollars.

That won’t happen nity wants to scare us with what will happen if we hack

Why would they do that when they know that people would just buy again another switch just to play online. Another 300 bucks for them.

Out of curiosity, my Switch crashed while I was emulating an NES game - am I going to be banned? I was using the default CFW, not SX or anything.

You're probably right that it wasn't Mario, but it was my go-to explanation at the time. The game was my physical real cartridge played online. No dumps or no messing with certs or anything like that

As far as my other info, what you see there is exactly what I said happened. Used SX OS CFW exclusively, never booted into OFW. Used homebrew and also used it while connected to the internet (ftpd, Switch Homebrew Appstore.) Updated all my backup games via CFW. Never played a single backup game online. Never used airplane mode, and unchecked to share my info with Nintendo. Didn't mess around with any other CFWs other than SX OS. No DevMenu, no NSP installations... I kept things pretty basic

I think that was "ftpd", because when you connect to ftp, in same time your switch will connect to nintendo's server for report too...

We're not sure if error reports increase the odds of a ban or not. Hypothetically, you would think it would but the only data that supports this are LayeredFS bans, not homebrew bans. The only user to have been banned for homebrew alone also cleared his error logs on 5.X which was considered unsafe and this is evidence of that.

 

[huma_dawii]

OMG getting banned is worst than I thought, I can't even post pictures on social media from my album!

I thought it was just the stupid Online gaming (which I could care less about).

 

[achandab]

Appears installing .nsp is a big risk. Might hold off using these for now. Just installed SX OS on my 2nd switch. I'll fill out all the forms when i have finished installing on all 4 switches. I'll try to keep them all the same with subtle changes here and there to see if we can narrow down what is triggering the bans.

Will updating game (installed from nsp files) get my cdn banned?

Guess its stupid social media as well

It will definitely get you banned, it's what got me banned. Nsp install updated (over SX OS).

I was fine until I updated a nsp game

Can you at least download game update or system update?

 

[huma_dawii]

Game updates yes! I would say same for Sys UPDATES

 

[Bocchuoi]

Game updates yes! I would say same for Sys UPDATES

Then i'll just go ahead and update my games cause I don't care if they ban me as long as i can still download sys/game updates.
